Homespun Quilt c. 1937

"Homespun Quilt" is a c. 1937 design by Julie C. Brush (1855-1995) for a quilt. The design features a repeating pattern of squares and circles on a gridded background. The artist's signature is located in the lower right corner, and the grid helps to illustrate how the quilt could be pieced together. This is a design for a quilt, meaning that it was intended to be used as a guide for the creation of the actual textile artwork. The gridded background and detailed pattern suggest this was intended to be a relatively intricate quilt, possibly for a more advanced quilter. This design exemplifies the meticulous planning and design process that goes into creating a quilt.
